@ Born This Way having no iconic video? Have you been dranking fool? Marry The Night, Judas, Born This Way, Edge Of Glory Says hello. All iconic in its own way! & The Album has impacted the culture today because this album is still being discussed to this day.

Gaga's iconic videos are Poker Face, Paparazzi, Bad Romance, Telephone, and maybe Alejandro.

I cannot wait to sit back and watch EVERYONE on this forum rip Katy apart when her new era starts and you have to be on the defense 99% of the time defending her. 

Katy's H&M campaign and whatever Christmas music she is going to release is just around the corner. What goes around, comes back around! :yes:

This isn't a stan war revenge thing and please don't turn it into one (this isn't to you two specifically, this is to anyone in either fandoms or both or anything basically) :emma: That's very high school and not very Lady Gaga forum :sweat:

The only album they should be comparing to Thriller since the start of the new millennium is honestly either TF or TFM and i'm not being delusional I'm being honest.

1989 is a cute [gay pop stan] album but it's hardly remarkable and tbh only the singles are good, it's your typical albeit solid top 40 pop record

It really has nothing to do with revenge lol.. it's just people sit there, following and stalking Taylor related threads to copy and paste the same long essay in an attempt to derail the on topic discussion. It's merely a matter of what goes around eventually does come back around :-)

Any time someone starts selling a lot, they're "the new MJ/Madonna/Beatles/Elvis." It's clickbait and it's disrespectful to those artists that spent years creating a legacy that is known throughout the world. Remember when Katy Perry was the female MJ? You laugh at her now, but you all were crapping your pants during the PRISM era because Roar and Dark Horse were dominating. Katy has nine #1 singles in total. Everyone likes to pretend Katy was never a force because they're still bitter she stole Gaga's thunder with Roar, but she was selling. And when she was selling, people gave her ridiculous titles like "the female MJ" or "the queen of pop." It was stupid then and it's stupid now.

1989 is a nice album. I like it. But what has it changed? Are artists rushing to imitate how it sounds? Her lyrics? Her marketing, maybe? Her videos? Who is 1989 influencing. What is it changing. These are the questions you need to ask to determine if an album is "the modern Thriller." Michael Jackson changed the game. Has Taylor Swift changed the game? Because you can sell a lot, but it takes something much deeper than that to be remembered. If you have artists 20 years from now saying "1989 changed the way I look at music," then put it up in the hall of fame and let it live in the canon with Sgt. Pepper and Thriller. Otherwise, it can sit next to Teenage Dream, another blockbuster album that changed nothing.

FINALLY someone with a brain :worship:

To be honest, Teenage Dream had way more impact than 1989. No one else did what Taylor did except for Madonna (Having a whole bunch of celebrities in videos) and it didn't create impact but for example: These days, what is the 4th of July without hearing Firework once? Or how about  the time where we felt like a teenage dream? It's weird because everyone underestimates Taylor yet overestimates get at the same time.

You don't have to "stalk" Taylor related threads on this site.

They fill up the hottest entertainment topics and plenty of us non-stans want to join the discussion. :)

When you're following every Taylor related thread (not you :-) ) it begins to seem like it's "stalking"
